“About pregnancy?”
I missed my period, it was expected 3 days ago. But I am still not feeling like it is about to come. I met my boyfriend about 15 days ago. I have been getting my periods on time for the last few months and sometimes they delay for just 2 days, not more. But this time it was supposed to come on the 29th but not till now.

Do pregnancy test.
Get a blood test B.hcg to rule out a pregnancy.
Salutations,
Have you been having unprotected sex? Even if you think you have the best thing to do is to get a pregnancy test from a local drug store. If you don’t have a car, you can order one cheaply online too, Amazon would be my best guess. If you don’t feel comfortable doing either of these things, you should make an appointment with your OB/GYN who can run a pregnancy test there. If you don’t have a OB/GYN yet, it’s very important that you get one, not only for this but because you’ll be 21 very soon and you’ll need to start Pap smears and annual visits to protect you from certain cancers that women get. If You don’t feel comfortable telling your parents that you’re going to an OB/GYN you can always go to a planned parenthood which provides all services for women your age for free. Just google “planned parenthood” to find one in your area.

Up to 7 days delay is normal. If you still don’t have a period after that, do your pregnancy test. If pregnancy test is negative, consult your OBGyn for help.

I would buy and perform a urine pregnancy test. Cycles can be up to a week late and you still would not be pregnant. Women not on birth control will have one to two abnormal cycles a year whether you skip one or get an extra.
